Voxel-Man

VOXEL-MAN representation of a human brain generated from magnetic resonance tomography data . 1998

VOXEL-MAN is the name of a program system for the generation and visualization of three-dimensional digital models of the human body from cross-sectional images from computed tomography , magnetic resonance tomography or photography (e.g. the Visible Human project ). It was developed at the University Medical Center Hamburg-Eppendorf by Karl Heinz Höhne and colleagues. Its applications range from interactive digital anatomical atlases to surgical simulators . The name is derived from the technical term voxel , which is used in computer graphics to describe the basic building block of a space-filling digital object (a "three-dimensional pixel "). Occasionally the word Voxel-Man is used as a general term for a digital body model.
